09bae7cb70 build-fhs-userenv: Propagate $XAUTHORITY
The `DISPLAY` environment variable is propagated into chroots built with
`buildFHSUserEnv`, but currently the `XAUTHORITY` variable is not. When
the latter is set, its value is usually necessary in order to connect to
the X server identified by the former.

This matters for users running gdm3, for example, who have `XAUTHORITY`
set to something like `/run/user/1000/gdm/Xauthority` instead of the X
default of `~/.Xauthority`, which doesn't exist in that setup.

Fixes #21532.

Steam requires this variable or some games run incredibly slow.
See ValveSoftware/Dota-2#921 for more information.

74107a7867 buildFHSEnv: refactor and simplify, drop buildFHSChrootEnv
This takes another approach at binding FHS directory structure. We
now bind-mount all the root filesystem to directory "/host" in the target tree.
From that we symlink all the directories into the tree if they do not already
exist in FHS structure.

This probably makes `CHROOTENV_EXTRA_BINDS` unnecessary -- its main usecase was
to add bound directories from the host to the sandbox, and we not just symlink
all of them. I plan to get some feedback on its usage and maybe deprecate it.

This also drops old `buildFHSChrootEnv` infrastructure. The main problem with it
is it's very difficult to unmount a recursive-bound directory when mount is not
sandboxed. This problem is a bug even without these changes -- if
you have for example `/home/alice` mounted to somewhere, you wouldn't see
it in `buildFHSChrootEnv` now. With the new directory structure, it's
impossible to use regular bind at all. After some tackling with this I realized
that the fix would be brittle and dangerous (if you don't unmount everything
clearly and proceed to removing the temporary directory, bye-bye fs!). It also
probably doesn't worth it because I haven't heard that someone actually uses it
for a long time, and `buildFHSUserEnv` should cover most cases while being much
more maintainable and safe for the end-user.

This re-uses the capabilities documented in `Process.spawn` to avoid leaking
unecessary file-descriptors to the sandbox

b1adfeb23d fhs-userenv: Make it work on kernel < 3.19 cc @abbradar
It may not be very secure, but I think it's better to make it work
with older kernel since 3.19 is not the default on nixos.
